It happened on Taylor Avenue near North Ridgewood Road, where Jaime Garcia refused to go drink with Juan Aragon Barranco, according to an arrest report.

Police believe Barranco was already drunk and high when he showed up to Garcia's apartment, according to witnesses.

When Garcia said no to drinking, an argument ensued and Barranco pulled out a knife, authorities said. Police said Garcia grabbed a wooden post to defend himself and tried to run away, but he fell outside of his apartment and Barranco stabbed him twice in the chest.

An officer later found Barranco about a block away from the murder scene trying to get rid of the knife, according to police.
